R121: Validating Recruitment through One-to-One Approach

SAP is the preferred ERP system used by corporations around the world. As a consequence, there is an enormous demand for quality skilled resources in the SAP domain. Knowing who quality is and who is not is an art and a science. Having identified this trend, Chris Holcroft, CEO, incorporated R121 in the year 2000 to provide recruitment and consultancy services in the SAP space.
Headquartered in San Diego, CA, R121 provides employment services such as discovery calls, assessments, staff augmentation, contract, permanent hire, and contract-to-hire. In short, if you need external advice with a quick turnaround and fair price in the SAP space, call R121; they will create connections to the right people. With their dual customer “one to one” approach, they fulfill the needs of their clients as well as the independents they represent. R121’s vibrant and expert team of professionals continuously improves its validation processes to ensure that they remain superior to even their best competitors by creating connections for their clients through straightforward communication. Whether it is a complimentary one hour discovery call, a short onsite assessment, a greenfield project, implementing a new module, a stabilization effort or an upgrade, R121 has an “extended family member” that can make it a success. Chris adds, “SAP is our bread and butter and it is what we have built the foundation of R121 upon.”

Such an uncompromising approach ensures that the company recruits the most talented and best-suited candidates for the job. Chris states, “We are a very busy company, all focused on one clear objective: Giving everyone value from our validation process.”
